Twin pregnancy following transmyometrial-subendometrial embryo transfer for repeated implantation failure.
Most in-vitro fertilization (IVF) failures are due to failure of implantation. We present a case of a successful attempt at transvaginal/transmyometrial/subendometrial embryo transfer in a patient with seven previous failures in assisted conception cycles. We demonstrate achievement of a twin pregnancy, which resulted in the delivery of healthy twin girls in January 1997, following a novel technique of embryo transfer.
